Woman Caught Committing Adultery

Woman Caught Committing Adultery

Read John 7:53-8:11

Here's a story inserted in the middle of the Tabernacle of Feasts that is controversial for at least two reasons: 1) it's not found in the earliest authorized transcripts and 2) Jesus forgives the unforgivable. I'm not likely to satisfy the debate in this brief discussion, but I hope you'll be encouraged to think about the event and draw your own conclusions. The one thing I would encourage you is not to avoid difficulties in Bible translation issues or conversation. With or without this passage, there is no difference in the truth of the gospel message or the theology we hold onto as truth.

Unbelief of the Jewish Leaders

Unbelief of the Jewish Leaders

John 7:45-52

The closing section of chapter 7 includes no words from Jesus. Instead, it's a very brief debate between religious leaders as they try to figure out what to do with Jesus.  As if their decision. When we zoom out a bit we see this is a midpoint of the discussion during the Feast of Tabernacles. Chapters 7 and 8 are one story with an aside thrown in the middle that we'll discuss next time. The characters in this section are quite interesting. There are three groups to consider: the guards, the people, and the Pharisees, that is, the religious leaders.
